++ for freezing. Freeze a small bowl of it and use it to chill a punch or sangria, no watered down punch/sangria.

Wooly,

If 'ya carb it it'll taste great after just a month in the bottle! I did some still my first batch, and even after a couple months I didn't care for it much. Carb'ed it all ever since.

I made mine, let it ferment for 1 month, then racked to a keg and carbonated for 48 hours at 35 degrees, bottled into beer bottles and SWMBO and other ladies that have tried it love it. It is potent!

They say that some bottles have a "beer" taste to it it while others do not. I used a glass carboy but did use my beer auto siphon. Any thought s on that?

Sounds like my Mom... anything that comes out of a beer bottle, even wine and Apfelwein, automatically tastes like beer to her. All psychological in most likelihood. If you didn't clean the bottles then you would have bigger problems than a bit of beer aftertaste; if I don't rinse my bottles mold sets up pretty fast in there.
